No, a Gila woodpecker is not a herbivore; it is an omnivore. While it does consume plant materials such as fruits and seeds, it primarily feeds on insects, larvae, and other invertebrates found in trees and the ground. Its diet reflects its adaptation to its desert habitat, where it often forages for food in cacti and dead or decaying wood.
